MRS. M. Y. PnrLP., OF Canvon
creek, writes to the Range and Val
ley as follows: "Having noticed the
question going the rounds of the pa
pers as to the possibility of raising
tobacco in this climate, | will state
for the benefit of those wishing to
know that we have raised it success
fully for the past five years. The To-
cation of the Phelps ranch Is near the
foothills, few miles above Mountain
Home. The soil there is somew hat
dryer than in the lower valley, but
otherwise the conditions are about
the same. There is probably a slight
difference in favor of the lower lands.
Experiments have also been made in
several other sections of the country,
with the same good results in every
instance. 1t may be that in few
years the Snake river stock range
will he given over to the cultivation
of tobacco"
